Renewable Power Generation: We counsel both established companies and new entrants in the renewable energy sector across the country and internationally on complex transactions and projects generated by solar, wind, geothermal, hydroelectric, and biofuel sources, as well as energy storage.

We help developers find innovative solutions to match the innovative nature of the new technologies and offsetting mechanisms being introduced into the marketplace. We are well-versed in the complex transactions surrounding the purchase and sale of Renewable Energy Credits and Voluntary Emission Reduction Credits and help clients structure programs to offset the carbon emissions associated with large projects. As new arrangements emerge, and competition intensifies, we are positioned to help clients evaluate their options and implement beneficial solutions.

Conventional Power Generation: Conventional electric power generation remains the backbone of the nation’s electric power supply. Our clients include producers and developers of conventional electric power from sources such as coal, oil, natural gas, cogeneration, and combined cycle. From years of working side by side our clients we understand the significant market trends and the commercial and regulatory challenges faced by producers and developers of conventional electric power.
